Store Sprvicp
DepartInent Is
Launched Here
. Richmond Division Establishes First
Unlt In Virginia
. To the Richmond Division of Wil­Uam
and Mary goes the honor of
havIng the "first Store Service De­partment
in Virginia. There are
only three similar schools in the
country and to have such a school
here signifies a great progressive
step for the South.
Miss Louise Bernard heads this
departmen~ which consists of two
branches. There is the Executive
Store Service branch. which covers
the field of retailing and equips its
students to run their own ~ stores or
to fill executive positions in large
stores. Also there's the salesman­ship
section which analyzes the type
c.f sales service in Richmond and
. elsewhere and discusses the art of
selling to and in stores.
Heretofore store owners in the
South have had to obtain their exe­cutive
material from the East as
the only schools of Store Service Ed­ucation
were there. This necessi­tated
the bringing in of strangers
wh:) were not used to the customs
and habits of the people in the
South and who wasted a great deal
of time and money getting accus­tomed
to the change in environment.
Miss Bernard was formerly the
consultant of Personnel Administra­tion
Research Bureau for Retail
Training University of Pittsburgh,
and she secured her initial training
in Baltimore as assistant to the
Personnel Director in charge of em­ployment
for HoschUd Kohn and Co.
In the Executive Store Service
section of William and Mary day
school, there are nine students. En­listed
in the Salesmanship course
there are sixteen pupils. Training
in both these branches will enable
students to work in stores all over
the country, but some time will be
given to studying the types of exe­cutives
and salesmen wanted in
Richmond and this whole Southern
vicinity.
